Socure Accelerates AI Innovation with Major Customer and Employee-Efficiency Releases

From Elegant Operations and Investigation Precision to LLMs in Detection — Socure Continues to Sprint Forward on its "AI Everywhere" Transformation

NEW YORK, June 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Socure, the leading platform for artificial intelligence and machine learning-based identity verification, fraud prevention, and compliance solutions, today announced another sweeping set of new initiatives designed to further position the company as the AI-first market leader. From compliance agentic copilots to legal automation chatbots and explainable machine learning models with LLMs, Socure's investments reflect its commitment to empowering customers and internal teams alike with AI.

Under its "AI Everywhere" investment thesis, Socure has embedded generative AI across its RiskOS™ platform and internal operations to help customers stay ahead of evolving fraud threats while increasing efficiency and precision across internal workflows. These AI innovations are reshaping how identities are verified, fraud is mitigated, and compliance is managed—in real time and at scale.

At a time when digital identity complexity is accelerating and fraud threats are growing more sophisticated, Socure is investing aggressively into a future where intelligent systems empower every decision, every interaction, and every outcome. A few of the AI initiatives Socure executed in the first half of 2025 include the rollout of internal AI chatbots for employees to gain 10x efficiency with a Socure expert in their pocket, cutting-edge product features for customers via RiskOS™, and a company-wide AI hackathon showcasing new builds across nearly the entire company.

AI-Powered Innovation for Customers

GenAI Explainability: Transparency for Every Decision

In a bold step toward model transparency and regulatory trust, Socure is launching GenAI Explainability across RiskOS™ and ID+ platforms on June 26, 2025.

The feature provides natural-language explanations of ML model outcomes, helping fraud and compliance teams resolve cases faster and with greater confidence. By surfacing the top risk signals in plain language, it streamlines reviews, reduces escalations, and makes model behavior easy to understand. Each explanation is stored immutably, creating a consistent, audit-ready record for compliance.

At launch, explainability will be available for products such as Sigma Identity Fraud, Synthetic Fraud, Verify+, and Global Watchlist Monitoring, with future expansion to additional solutions and a conversational case assistant. Read more in Socure's blog here.

Compliance AI Copilot: Smarter Sanctions and Watchlist Screening

At the end of Q1, Socure unveiled its Compliance AI Copilot, a next-generation enhancement to its Global Watchlist Screening & Monitoring solution. This generative AI-powered assistant helps compliance professionals and analysts reduce time to decision by more than 90% by summarizing key match signals, identifying false positives, and explaining outcomes in plain language.

Running securely within Socure's platform, the Compliance AI Copilot strengthens auditability, speeds case resolution, and ensures regulatory readiness for financial institutions operating at scale. The innovation has already gained traction across customers who are looking to streamline sanctions and PEP screening without compromising accuracy. Read the full announcement here.

Enabling an Environment for Rapid Innovation: Socure's Q2 AI Hackathon

At the heart of Socure's transformation is a simple belief: To empower our customers, we must first empower our teams. That's why we invest in creating a vibrant, collaborative environment for innovation—with one highlight being our H1 2025 AI Hackathon.

Socure's internal transformation is fueled by a strong culture of innovation. During its H1 2025 AI Hackathon, 72 team members across 16 teams built working prototypes of next-gen AI tools—ranging from auto-generated AI-written workflows to fully embedded hosted flows. With access to every AI tool from CrewAI to Sagemaker to PyTorch to Claude, NotebookLM, Gemini, Cursor, ChatGPT, Streamlit, Flora and more, Socure is a place AI builders want to build. Several of these projects are already moving into production, and in some cases accelerating Socure's roadmap by multiple quarters, further reinforcing the criticality of our AI-first vision. More to come on these innovations soon!
